It’s official. A few short years after it’s inception, Sony is killing the UMD format they were distributing movies to PSP owners in. Sales apparently slacked after users realized they can upload their own purchased movies via the USB cable instead of repurchasing them.
Sony is supposedly moving over to a “Memory Stick” format… but don’t expect that to last exceptionally long either. If it weren’t for their camera division, there wouldn’t be a memory stick, as no one else supports or uses it.
